Middle Of Nowhere
Selena Gomez & the Scene Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You left me spinning like a disco
Trying but I don't know
If I can stand straight
You took me left when you knew I was right
Now I got to try to fight just to make it through the day

I never knew what you were capable of
Baby, I would've kept my heart
But I gave it up
Baby, I fell in love
Now I don't know where to start

It's so cold with nobody to hold me
You're so wrong for leaving when you told me
You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere
Now I'm lost
Trying to make it on my own
I thought I could never do this,
But now I'm walking by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

You left me broken like a record
Baby, I'm baby I'm hurt and I don't want to play anymore
Missed every sign
Believed ever lie
And I was waiting for more

I never knew what you were capable of
Baby, I would've kept my heart
But I gave it up
Baby, I fell in love
Now I don't know where to start

It's so cold with nobody to hold me
You're so wrong for leaving when you told me
You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere
Now I'm lost
Trying to make it on my own
I thought I could never do this alone,
But now I'm walking by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

You took my heart off my sleeve
But now I'm taking it back
Baby, here I come
You took advantage of me
I don't appreciate that, that
You son of a gun

It's so cold with nobody to hold me
You're so wrong for leaving when you told me
You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

It's so cold with nobody to hold me
You're so wrong for leaving when you told me
You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere
Now I'm lost
Trying to make it on my own
I thought I could never do this alone,




But now I'm walking by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

Line by Line Meaning

You left me spinning like a disco
You left me feeling dizzy and out of control like I was at a disco party


Trying but I don't know If I can stand straight
I'm trying to keep my balance but I'm not sure if I can do it


You took me left when you knew I was right
You made me go in the wrong direction even though I was right


Now I got to try to fight just to make it through the day
Now I have to struggle and fight just to get through each day


I never knew what you were capable of
I didn't realize what you were capable of doing


Baby, I would've kept my heart But I gave it up
I would have held onto my heart, but I was willing to give it up for you


Baby, I fell in love Now I don't know where to start
I fell in love with you, and now I don't know what to do


It's so cold with nobody to hold me
I feel lonely and cold without anyone to hold me


You're so wrong for leaving when you told me You would never leave me by myself
You were wrong to leave me when you promised you would never leave me alone


Out in the middle of nowhere Now I'm lost Trying to make it on my own
I'm lost and trying to survive on my own in a place with no clear direction


I thought I could never do this, But now I'm walking by myself
I used to think I couldn't survive alone, but now I'm walking by myself


You left me broken like a record Baby, I'm hurt and I don't want to play anymore
You left me broken like a record and now I'm hurt and don't want to keep playing this game anymore


Missed every sign Believed every lie And I was waiting for more
I failed to see the warning signs and believed all your lies, only to find out there was nothing more than that


You took my heart off my sleeve But now I'm taking it back
You took control of my heart, but now I'm taking it back


Baby, here I come You took advantage of me I don't appreciate that, that You son of a gun
I'm coming back to take control of my heart and you took advantage of me, which I don't appreciate, you scoundrel

You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere
Now I'm lost
Trying to make it on my own
I thought I could never do this alone,
But now I'm walking by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

But now I'm walking by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

I completely agree! After what happened at The Ama's, I saw her on The Kelly Clarkson Show and she told Kelly, " Maybe I can't sing or hit notes like I used to, but I love it, and I'm gonna keep doing it!" Shattered my heart and I was going ~what??? And Kelly, I love her, goes whoa, why would you say that sweetie? And Sel said, " Well, apparently that's what the world thinks of me now according to social media! Kelly told her how amazing she was and to NEVER LISTEN TO THOSE PEOPLE AND LOSE FAITH IN YOURSELF, I WAS SO MAD THAT PEOPLE DID THAT TO HER! This is already too long, I'll leave it with this, I'm a true fan👑, if anyone thinks that Sel can't sing, listen to my go to song~ Rock God, written by Katy Perry and delivered beautifully to us by the amazing Selena!!! It's amazing, if you haven't heard it, I'm excited for you!
